Fall for the Book: New York Times bestselling author Brit Bennett discusses her stunning novel The Vanishing Half, about identical twin sisters, inseparable as children, who choose to live drastically different lives: one as white and one as black. Entertainment Weekly calls the book “a story of absolute, universal timelessness… For this moment, it’s piercing, subtly wending its way toward questions about who we are and who we want to be.” The Vanishing Half was the highly-anticipated sequel to her debut novel, The Mothers, which Brooklyn Magazine called “stunning.” Bennett will be in conversation with Lisa Page, co-editor of We Wear The Mask: 15 True Stories of Passing in America.
